1. NOW I make known unto you, brethren, the gospel which I preached to you, which also you have received, and wherein you stand;
2. By which also you are saved, if you hold fast after what manner I preached unto you, unless you have believed in vain.
3. For I delivered unto you first of all, which I also received: how that Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures:
4. And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day, according to the scriptures:
5. And that he was seen by Cephas; and after that by the eleven.
6. Then he was seen by more than five hundred brethren at once: of whom many remain until this present, and some are fallen asleep.
7. After that, he was seen by James, then by all the apostles.
